Sometimes I send my gopher out and she comes back with something I did ask for.
So, I thought that the English language needs a new word, but as the inventor of that word it seems I should be able to construct the proper English rules for its use.
It is a word that only should be used by a man, when he sends a woman out on an errand. If the man wants a rally berger she should not come back with a wopper.
He could say," I want a Rally Berger, and don't JackInTheBeanStalk me".
A woman could use the word, but the only proper way she could use it would be, "And he specificially told me not to JackInTheBeanStalk him", say like if she went to the hardware store and asked for a particular brand of latex paint.
But do you feel, 'jackinthebeanstalk' should have capitol letters inside of it, or is it even a word? If its a word it has to be a verb, I think.

Well it would be a verb but it is too long and has caps so noone is going to use it. I suggest JITBS or jitbs as in Don't jitbs me!
pronounced "jetbis"

In the usage described, you are correct; it is a verb.

It is a "phrase."
